Pronunciation: jirk fek tay shun

Sentence: Why did Lacey ever think that George's habit of using chauvinistic terms of endearment was cute? His familiarity had seemed quaint when he called her Cutie or Babe or Toots or Doll. She was beginning to think he could not remember her actual first name. His jirkfectation was equally applied to all women he encountered. But he went too far in calling the Mother Superior of the local convent, Hottie. Lacey reckoned his punishment in Hell would be a term of enfearment.

Etymology: Jerk (a dull stupid fatuous person) & Irk (to irritate or vex)& Affectation (a deliberate pretense or exaggerated display)

I like it. It even works without the CS reference, as in "to bug someone." It'd be better as two words, but we don't really have that option here. Gets my vote anyway. - ErWenn, 2007-02-16: 10:46:00
